We got a taste of total destruction on crackdown 3 demo reveal then we had the actual games destruction on launch day though not as good as the demo and they had to hire sumo digital for that they never did a 3rd person before not sure? I'd imagine someone strong as insomiac creating lets say spiderman 2 (veterans of 3rd person action game) with destructible environments and done just like the demo ? I'd imagine rhino slaming spiderman through walls etc. or have an exclusive hulk game for PS5 where will the fun end? For Switch an Avengers 4 maybe with destruction?

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Useing the cloud for part of a game, like destruction is silly and a waste imo.

It just needs to be good enough to run games via streaming and thats it.Crackdown 3 usage is borderline shamefull. Destruction wasnt even that impressive in the end.

If they start doing such for single player games, it ll be viewed as DRM and consumers probably wont be happy.If it serves any purpose for multiplayer, is yet to be determined. In crackdown 3 theres huge slow downs and lag, if things get hectic ingame (multiplayer modes).

Honestly with how powerfull the PS5/XB2 is looking to be..... do you even need to do this via the cloud?

I'd give it to a better dev see how it turns out ?

We don't know if PS5 can do this without cloud? Though , I thought it was possible Sony first party to emulate a better version of red faction from Ps3 to one of there games on ps4 it hasn't happened . Though , Sumo digital is no naughty dog? but who knows maybe naughty dog might end up just as bad if they did destructible environments ??

Traditional destruction animations are cheaper and quicker to do than cloud animations. Nobody cares if the destruction is some actual representation of real life physics, made on a cloud server. They care if it looks cool, and is lag-free.

8-core Ryzen is infinitely more capable than an 8-core Jaguar... Destruction and simulation quality effects like Physics should be a big focus next gen.

Less of a need for the cloud to assist in those tasks next gen than this gen because of that.
